Instant Pot Asian Short Ribs

January 20, 2020 by Angela Leave a Comment

Instant Pot Asian Short Ribs

I found short ribs on sale and wasn’t completely sure what to do with them (never having bought this exact cut) but these turned out AMAZING.

A sweet and sour spicy sauce was the perfect compliment. Brown sugar, dried red peppers, good soy sauce, five spice powder, garlic, oyster sauce, ketchup, rice vinegar, ginger, sesame seed oil and plum jam. Granted, it’s a lot of ingredients but amazing.

And some of my favorite ingredients from Asian cooking.

I know ketchup seems odd, but I was reading that some very authentic (American) Asian restaurants do use it in their sauces. Regardless, I wasn’t going for *true* authenticity here. Just something tasty! I love fresh ginger SO MUCH. I suppose you could use powdered but fresh is so amazing.

I had my husband smoke the ribs for about an hour set to low…I just wanted some flavor on them. We use the Masterbuilt Electric Smoker (he says it’s the best Father’s day gift ever. I have a habit of buying him gifts that are self-serving!) We love this because it just takes all the hard work out of smoking meats, so it doesn’t become a full-time job (we both have one of those already!) These were just lightly smoked for a bit of extra flavor. They could also be smoked on a grill (offset with some wood chips) or if your’e really in a rush, just add a bit of liquid smoke to the sauce.

After they were smoked, I sliced into individual ribs, and gave them a quick sear in the Instant Pot Max (my current Instant Pot, it’s extremely versatile). Just enough to get them some color.

And after searing (not the clearest picture! they were steamy!) The smell at this point was *amazing*. A nonstick pot makes searing very easy to clean up after.

Placed one cup of water in the bottom and added the ribs to the basket. I pressure cooked on high for 20 minutes until just about falling off the bone but with still enough bite. I use this strainer, it was the least expensive one I could find on Amazon, and was very easy to tilt up the handles with pliers so it would fit.

After pressure cooking.

Drain the water and place back into Instant pot on saute function.

Added the sauce and heated through.

Really amazing flavor given how quickly they were finished!

Anyone else addicted to watching Somebody Feed Phi Anyone else addicted to watching Somebody Feed Phil? I saw this on one of the episodes where he visits Doe's Eat Place, and when he talked about the "wet salad" there, I was instantly reminded of how my mother made her delicious garlic salad, and how similar this looked...but with one key twist on the ingredients. Simple, fresh, and easy, but so good! #youDOmakefriendswithsalad⁠

Cooking in the sous vide takes a choice cut and bumps the flavor and texture up to prime or better, particularly with a long cook.
